Curse of the Death's Head: THE STORY OF THE SS-TOTENKOPF DIVISION (1985, 1989) By Rupert Butler
 
This is the story of the infamous Totenkopf Division, which, with its origins in the brutal rule of the concentration camps and the characteristic skull mark on the uniforms, spread terror and fear in World War II Europe.

During the rapid successes on the Western Front and the fierce battles in the East, Totenkopf emerged as one of the leading divisions within the Waffen-SS. But their reputation was tarnished by so-called clean-up operations behind the front line and other war atrocities.

In the book, we get to follow SS-Totenkopf from beginning to end. The confrontation with the rivals in SA and the execution of Ernst Röhm, the bloody battles at Kursk and the kidnapping of the Hungarian head of state's son are just some of the dramatic events depicted in the story of Hitler's skull soldiers.
